This guide explains how to install WHMreseller on a cPanel/WHM server.

Requirements

• cPanel/WHM installed server

• Root SSH access

• GCC / G++ compiler installed

• AlmaLinux, RockyLinux, CloudLinux, or compatible OS

Before Installation

Remove any existing deasoft.com entries from /etc/hosts to avoid hostname or connectivity conflicts during installation.

sed -i '/\<deasoft\.com\>/d' /etc/hosts

This removes all matching lines directly from /etc/hosts.

Installation Steps

Run the following commands as root:

cd /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi
wget -N https://deasoft.com/whmreseller/install.cpp
g++ install.cpp -o install
chmod 700 install
./install
rm -f install*

What the Installer Does

The installer will:

• Download and compile the WHMReseller installer

• Install the WHMReseller plugin into WHM

• Configure the required files and permissions

• Automatically clean up installation files after completion

Accessing WHMreseller

After installation, log into WHM and search for:

WHMreseller

from the WHM sidebar or plugins section.

Troubleshooting

g++: command not found

Install GCC/G++ tools first:

AlmaLinux / RockyLinux / CloudLinux

dnf install gcc-c++ -y

CentOS 7

yum install gcc-c++ -y

Reinstalling

To reinstall, simply run the installation commands again.

Uninstall

If an uninstall utility is provided by the vendor, use it. Otherwise manually remove the plugin files from:

/usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/

and related WHM plugin directories.
